Author

Wayne Eckerson, Director of Research, Business Applications and Architecture Group at TechTarget

There’s a revolution afoot in the way organizations architect the flow of data to support reporting and analysis applications. The ringleader of the revolution is big data.

This e-book written by business intelligence visionary Wayne Eckerson will describe the emerging big data ecosystem in which Hadoop and analytical databases play an increasingly important role. It examines ways that traditional BI, extract, transform and load (ETL), and database vendors integrate with Hadoop.

Finally, it speculates on how Hadoop and analytical ecosystems will evolve and affect traditional BI approaches, technologies and vendors.
